Misplaced Pages

Latest revision as of 00:39, 8 September 2024

Tothwolf is busy making fat stacks and may not respond swiftly to queries.

When even ArbCom fails to stop disruptive behaviour, the project is abjectly failing and it is time for me to move on and spend my time on another project. It is sad that the name of the ArbCom case was chosen as it was as that created an inherit bias and may have been a significant factor in it not being properly addressed. I for one hope that I'm completely wrong about Misplaced Pages failing and things somehow turn around, but that may just turn out to be wishful thinking. --Tothwolf (talk) 22:44, 5 January 2010 (UTC)

Updates as of August 2010-2011

Ravenswing was kind enough to point out the above link didn't give the full picture, so those interested should see these discussions for the bigger picture:

• Wikihounding and disruptive editing? (See also: Dueling pianos)
• Request to amend prior case: Tothwolf (C&C warning for parts of this discussion which turned into a WP:BOOMERANG)
• Down the Rabbit Hole (Material linked to during the above two discussions)
• Harassment of Tothwolf by Theserialcomma
• Blocked: personal attacks, baiting and hounding
• Blocked: loss of talkpage access
• Special:Contributions/Theserialcomma
• Misplaced Pages:Sockpuppet investigations/Theserialcomma/Archive
• On the subject of COI
• Personal experience with an editor gaming AE (Statement made during the AESH case, See also VPP discussion)
• What about the issue of "Block is AE block because I say so" (Additional comments made during the AESH case)
• One second blocks
• Case naming (Lengthy and contains many additional links)

• Thoughts on bullying, AfD, and the decline in contributors (February 2012)
• Partial summary of my bullying and cyberstalking experience (February 2012)

In a reply I made in the Dueling pianos discussion I also commented " If their behaviours are not addressed, even if I were to simply "disappear" entirely from Misplaced Pages, the behaviours that have been documented by both myself and others (both past and present) are going to continue (as they have even during this case) and will continue to be disruptive towards the goal of building the encyclopedia. " which was later documented in the above linked Wikihounding and disruptive editing? AN/I and Request to amend prior case: Tothwolf request made by one of the involved parties.

Much more information is available off-wiki, and those interested may contact me directly. (This is especially true in the case of the long term sockpuppetry from Theserialcomma, for which a large amount of info can also be found in the functionaries-en mailing list archives.) --Tothwolf (talk) 09:17, 13 June 2011 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Category:Unassessed Computer Security articles of Unknown-importance

A tag has been placed on Category:Unassessed Computer Security articles of Unknown-importance indicating that it is currently empty, and is not a disambiguation category, a category redirect, a featured topics category, under discussion at Categories for discussion, or a project category that by its nature may become empty on occasion.

Speedy deletion nomination of Eblana (disambiguation)

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Eblana (disambiguation) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Misplaced Pages. This has been done under section G14 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a disambiguation page which either

• disambiguates only one extant Misplaced Pages page and whose title ends in "(disambiguation)" (i.e., there is a primary topic);
• disambiguates zero extant Misplaced Pages pages, regardless of its title; or
• is an orphaned redirect with a title ending in "(disambiguation)" that does not target a disambiguation page or page that has a disambiguation-like function.

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such pages may be deleted at any time. Please see the disambiguation page guidelines for more information.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Misplaced Pages's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator.
